The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1512
Ignoring Geraldâs question, Ghose simply closed his eyes for a moment⦠And when he reopened them, a momentary flash of fire could be seen reflected in his eyes as he roared, âFlaming Blades!â
Following that, the hilt of his katana seemed to light ablaze, shooting upward toward the tip which Gerald was still holding onto!
Much to Ghoseâs dismay, the second the flames were about to burn Gerald, they suddenly extinguished with a sizzling sound!
ââ¦W-whatâ¦? How is this even remotely possible?!â stuttered the wide-eyed Ghose in disbelief as he stared at the youth.
Sensing that Ghose probably wasnât going to reveal any relevant information if he continued holding onto his blade, Gerald simply released his grip on it, immediately causing Ghose to take a few steps back.
At that moment, seven distinct ringing sounds could be heard coming from where the Laidlers were seatedâ¦
Almost immediately after, seven figures leaped out from the shadows, taking only a split second to surround Gerald as they shouted, âMaster!â
From what Gerald could see, all seven of the masked men were dressed in ninja-like garb, and each of them had murderous auras as they held onto their steel knives.
Regaining his composure, Ghose then turned to look at Gerald before saying, âNow then⦠If you didnât already know, Tierson Mountain is extremely important to the Goldenslinger, your excellency⦠With that in mind, Iâll say it right now that if you still wish to gain control over the area, youâll surely offend the rest of the Goldenslinger⦠You wouldnât want that, would youâ¦?â
âOh? I see, I seeâ¦â replied Gerald as he nodded.
âHmm? So, youâre finally starting to get scared? Wise of you, really. Now then, why donât we have a seat and get a bit more acquainted with each other?â said Ghose as he took a step toward Gerald.
âScared? Iâm afraid youâre mistaken. Regardless, you really shouldnât have said that to me,â replied Gerald as he shook his head.
ââ¦I beg your pardon? What do you mean by that, your excellency?â asked Ghose, stunned.
âWell, quite honestly, I had only planned to fend you off at first. Following that, Iâd have asked you regarding how you went about with your training routes as well as a little on your sect. Before I even got to that, however, to think that youâd actually dare to threaten and blackmail me!â replied Gerald.
ââ¦What? With that said, are you not interested in allying with us? Iâm afraid you donât know how powerful the Goldenslinger truly is!â said Ghose as unease swept through his entire being.
âWhether theyâre powerful or not is beside the point. I hadnât intended on killing you just now, you know? However, for daring to threaten me, youâll be paying with your life!â
Glaring at Geraldâwho still had one hand in his pocketâGhose tightened his grip on his katanaâs hilt.
Gerald, on the other hand, simply looked back at the furious ninja before flicking his fingers at him rather nonchalantly.
With immense speed and precision, the next thing Ghose knew, his kneecaps had already been pierced by some unknown force!
Watching as Ghose screamed miserablyâunable to stop himself from falling to his knees in front of Geraldâthe seven other ninjas instantly raised their blades, ready to launch their attack!
In response, however, Gerald simply raised his hand before waving it slightlyâ¦
And just like that, a glowing haloâthat centered around Geraldâsuddenly appeared and immediately began widening itself in all directions!
Unable to dodge the counterattack, all seven of the men were sent flying backward as though they were nothing but newborn lambs!
Seeing that, Ghose immediately began begging, âP-please, have mercy! Please spare my lifeâ¦!â
He now finally understood why Carlos had reacted that way when he first saw Gerald. This youth had abilities that would make anyone feel powerless!
Ghose was now feeling like the weakest man alive as he stood before Gerald.
Not wanting things to just end like this, Ghose quickly snapped out of it before saying, âThe Goldenslinger are a secretive and mysterious sect with a thousand-year history in Japan! We have many experts without our ranks, so thereâs no need to offend us, Deity!â
âWell, since I still wish to gain control, the Goldenslinger are going to be offended either way, no?â
replied Gerald.
âThatâs right! However, if you hand the controlling rights over to us, Iâll definitely beg the Goldenslinger to spare your life!â cried out Ghose in his panicked state.
âSo, it appears that you still donât get what Iâm trying to say, nor do you understand my style of doing things. Regardless, Iâve already offended you anyway, so I may as well just finish off what Iâve started.
Iâll still be killing you off now, and if the Goldenslinger find fault with me later on, Iâll just end them when they come for me!â replied Gerald as he squinted his eyes before extending his right handâ¦
As his hand began glowing, it began radiating an aura that manifested into a giant pair of hands that swiftly grabbed onto Ghose!
Before Ghose could even react, Gerald clenched his fist⦠and the next thing anyone knew, Ghose had already been reduced to nothing more than a lump of bloodied meat!
Having witnessed such a cruel scene, everyone in the area instantly began screaming in sheer horror!
